Well, he said, "Y'all can all go to hell
'Cause I'm goin' to Texas," and he left Tennessee
Kinda like that band of outlaw gypsies did
Back in '70-somethin' when they set the music free
And they yanked ol' Hank right up off the Opry
Said ol' Waylon was way too rock 'n' roll
And I know my cup of tea may not be your brand of whiskey
Just make sure that yours is soothin' to your soul
Yeah, make sure that yours is soothin' to your soul
So I'll keep ridin' for the brand
Travelin' with my band
And I'll keep on singin' songs that I believe
So you can keep your Music Row
I'll take the front row to the back row
I'm a fan of the fan in the cheap seats
We were doin' our thing at this dive down in Detroit
When I hit the stage, the place was mostly empty
But this dude bought everyone round after round
And we all had a ball and they all sang along with me
And right there as I was standin' in the footlights
I looked up to thank my lucky stars above
And you may all wonder why for all those years I played for free
And it's because I was doin' what I love
Yeah, playin' country music is what I love
So I'll keep ridin' for the brand
Travelin' with my band
And I'll keep on singin' songs that I believe
So you can keep your Music Row
I'll take the front row to the back row
I'm a fan of the fan in the cheap seats
Woo
You finally offered me a seat there at your table
Then laughed and pulled the chair right out from under me
Yeah, now I aim to set the whole wide world on fire
Mixin' my music with your words is gasoline
As long as Saturday nights have a honky-tonk and
A good timin' band to keep your boots stompin'
A blacktop where these old bus wheels can roll
As long as lovers keep on lovin', dogs die
Trucks break down, there's cheatin' and drinkin'
You can go and keep your rigged-up radio
Man, you can go and keep your rigged-up radio
'Cause I'll keep ridin' for the brand
Travelin' with my band
And I'll keep on singin' songs that I believe
So you can keep your Music Row
I'll take the front row to the back row
I'm a fan of the fan in the cheap seats
Yeah, I'm a fan of the fan in the cheap seats
